Rock Hard Chokes: A Top Forty List

Chokes are inherently dramatic--they are conflict, character, and crisis rolled into one. They are arguably what every other wrestling hold aspires to. Few acts of aggression are this intimate. Sexier than punching or kicking, strangulation requires prolonged body contact, even when a garrote is used. Knocking out an opponent through the incremental application of pressure is dominance taken to the edge.

These are my favorite shots of choke holds at the Rock Hard Wrestling web site, most of which feature my favorite RHW stars, past and present. If you ask me why I take on such a project, you clearly have no idea what I'm about.
